Reformation Union Restored Belgian White, a can potential

Reformation Union Restored Belgian White takes aim at cans offering in the near future.

The Woodstock, Georgia brewery crosses their two year mark this month, and has been draft-only since day one. (With the exception of the brief to-go sales in the state this year.)

Reformation Union Restored Belgian White is a part of the year-round lineup, and will be a part of the newly established can series when the time comes.

Union is about relationships. Created for that moment when a stranger becomes a friend. When the fear of judgment becomes the freedom to become known. Union is belgian style white ale you can pull up chair and spend some quality time around–with and for those who matter.

Reformation plans on using the Evercan from Novelis. The aluminum sheet creates the first beverage container in the business to contain at least 90% recycled aluminum.

The brewery has not yet announced this offering.

Style: Witbier
Availability: Draft (Current) 12oz Cans (Future)
Release: TBA

4.8% ABV
